San Jose Sharks forward Logan Couture will be out indefinitely after surgery to his right leg, general manager Doug Wilson said Friday.
"In Wednesday night's game in Edmonton, Logan suffered trauma to his right thigh, creating a Charley-horse effect which prohibited him from returning to the game," Wilson said in a statement. "Upon returning to San Jose, it was discovered that there was a small arterial bleed in the area. Last night, Logan underwent a successful procedure in San Jose to close the artery and is expected to make a full recovery.
"At this time, there is no projected time frame for his return to the ice but we do not expect this to be a long-term recovery.
